I had the stem cell waist-to-saddlebags surgery with Dr. Jaeho Cho at TheLINE Plastic Surgery! I had love handle and thigh liposuction plus hip grafting. I had gained so much weight mainly in my lower body and thighs that the stress was no joke Right after surgery, even with the swelling, I could feel my thighs were thinner, and my thighs and love handles kept slimming down steadily up to around month 6-7. As for the hip grafting, honestly before I did it I doubted it would work in one round and thought I would do a second round if it went flat. I had read a lot of reviews saying one round is not enough... But contrary to my worries, maybe because the graft took well, at 11 months now it is holding up nicely!! When it was swollen at first it was really full and I thought I wish these were my actual buttocks hehe but that was swelling, not fat hehe and the more the swelling went down, the more my waist, hips and thighs got beautifully defined, so every time I put on pants or leggings I think I am so glad I had the surgery Honestly I have put on a little weight since it is winter, but it barely shows, and maybe because my contour is well defined the fat no longer settles in unflattering ways like before! I used to hate summer because I did not want my body seen, but now I look forward to it hehe
